As if anyone involved with the video was even aware of this, and of course they will probably ignore the fact that it was likely democrats that did it.
These people just LOOK for reasons to be "outraged".
It wasn’t “likely” Democrats I’m sure
It WAS Democrats because that is their history.

I got around to seeing what the fuss is all about. I don't listen to commercial Country but that's pretty good. Not sure what they're all in a lather about. What an idiotic thing to be infuriated about.
Piss on them all anyway.
Ass kicking Country with a potty mouth.

The radical leftists were out to get the Aldeans after they previously made public comments against the left. This was the best they could gin up, a completely ridiculous twisting of the lyrics of one of his songs.
This is not about the song, it's about a war against the Aldeans.

This is a very good take on Try That in a Small Town.
Skip 1 min to the intro. It’s a great commentary on Aldean’s song.

I do wish I could see how many sour pusses clicked thumbs down. I'm sure it's a number as dismal as those who down voted.

At the heart of the left whining is vigilantism. Like KR above, recent stories about Ring doorbells promoting vigilantes, the left implies defending yourself in any way ignores the sacrosanct "rule of law" which they pretend is the final authority. Yeah right, jackalopes.

Just watched, liked, and commented. The official music video has 9,018,985 views, 568k likes.
The lyrics video has 806,855 views and 30k likes.
Yep, I don't think that the left is getting what they wanted.
Jay Rah Visions did a reaction to this video and it was vary good. His video has 40,400 views, 4.2k likes and the comments are very positive.
Going outlaw worked out fine for Willie and Waylon. Been replaying this for several days now.

I only get to defend myself from people who choose to ignore the "rule of law" first.
So, Democrats/Liberals/Progressives fuck off.

Nothing scares BLM and Antifa more than someone standing up to them, even if it is only verbal or symbolically. Like all bullies, they are cowards at heart.
Hopefully, Aldean's song and video will inspire other patriots to express their feelings on the growing problems we face with leftist activism and attempted power grabs.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

I believe that another viewing is in order to help push it over the 10 million view mark.

I am not a Country Music fan, but I watched the video and what I saw was a documentary of all the wild, bad things happening in too many of our large cities and that they are not happening in the small towns dotting our country. I agree with the symbolism and the message. I did not see a way to "like".
